Original Member Leaves Alameda Corridor Authority
City Councilman Jeffrey A. Kellogg, who is leaving office because of term limits, has stepped down as the chairman and the longest-serving board member of the Alameda Corridor Transportation Authority.
The government agency is responsible for building a new 20-mile rail link between the county’s fast-growing ports and transcontinental rail yards near downtown Los Angeles. The estimated cost of the project is $2.4 billion.
Kellogg, the only member of the governing board to have served since its inception in 1989, has been instrumental in the development of the Alameda Corridor into a full-scale construction project.
Los Angeles City Councilman Rudy Svorinich Jr. will succeed Kellogg as board chairman.
